The Ukrainian Armed Forces commented on the withdrawal of North Korean soldiers from the front line in the Kursk region.

The Chairman of the Council of Reservists of the Ground Forces of the Armed Forces of Ukraine, Ivan Timochko, expressed the opinion that if North Korean troops have been withdrawn from the front line, they are likely currently passing on their combat experience to soldiers who did not participate in battles in the Kursk region. This was reported by 24 Kanal.

According to him, the troop withdrawal is part of a standard regrouping process. The remaining units can train new soldiers by sharing the experiences of those who survived the battles. These soldiers may then be sent back to North Korea to prepare the next military contingents. Meanwhile, those who have undergone tactical training in the rear will be deployed to the front, awaiting reinforcements.

Timochko also noted that one should not expect a complete and final withdrawal of North Korean troops from the front of the Russo-Ukrainian war.

"Right now, they will be strengthening their forces. North Korean soldiers in Russia are not about defending Russia. It’s about creating another army of dictatorship with combat experience. Russia and North Korea have signed and ratified comprehensive support and assistance. They will be pulling someone there now," Timochko added.

Recall that the Ministry of Defense is implementing significant changes for conscripts starting February 28: what to expect. From February 28, changes will be introduced in Ukraine regarding the interaction format between the state and conscripts.
